Safety DANGER — MANY HAZARDS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH INSTALLING, USING, MAINTAINING, AND WORKING ON OR AROUND TRIPODS, TOWERS, AND ANY ATTACHMENTS TO TRIPODS AND TOWERS SUCH AS SENSORS, CROSSARMS, ENCLOSURES, ANTENNAS, ETC. FAILURE TO PROPERLY AND COMPLETELY ASSEMBLE, INSTALL, OPERATE, USE, AND MAINTAIN TRIPODS, TOWERS, AND ATTACHMENTS, AND FAILURE TO HEED WARNINGS, INCREASES THE RISK OF DEATH, ACCIDENT, SERIOUS INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND PRODUCT FAILURE. TAKE ALL REASONABLE PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID THESE HAZARDS. CHECK WITH YOUR ORGANIZATION'S SAFETY COORDINATOR (OR POLICY) FOR PROCEDURES AND REQUIRED PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY WORK.

Use tripods, towers, and attachments to tripods and towers only for purposes for which they are designed. Do not exceed design limits. Be familiar and comply with all instructions provided in product manuals. Manuals are available at www.campbellsci.com or by telephoning (435) 227-9000 (USA). You are responsible for conformance with governing codes and regulations, including safety regulations, and the integrity and location of structures or land to which towers, tripods, and any attachments are attached. Installation sites should be evaluated and approved by a qualified engineer. If questions or concerns arise regarding installation, use, or maintenance of tripods, towers, attachments, or electrical connections, consult with a licensed and qualified engineer or electrician. General • Prior to performing site or installation work, obtain required approvals and permits. Comply with all governing structure-height regulations, such as those of the FAA in the USA. • Use only qualified personnel for installation, use, and maintenance of tripods and towers, and any attachments to tripods and towers. The use of licensed and qualified contractors is highly recommended. • Read all applicable instructions carefully and understand procedures thoroughly before beginning work. • Wear a hardhat and eye protection, and take other appropriate safety precautions while working on or around tripods and towers. • Do not climb tripods or towers at any time, and prohibit climbing by other persons. Take reasonable precautions to secure tripod and tower sites from trespassers. • Use only manufacturer recommended parts, materials, and tools. Utility and Electrical • You can be killed or sustain serious bodily injury if the tripod, tower, or attachments you are installing, constructing, using, or maintaining, or a tool, stake, or anchor, come in contact with overhead or underground utility lines. • Maintain a distance of at least one-and-one-half times structure height, 20 feet, or the distance required by applicable law, whichever is greater, between overhead utility lines and the structure (tripod, tower, attachments, or tools). • Prior to performing site or installation work, inform all utility companies and have all underground utilities marked. • Comply with all electrical codes. Electrical equipment and related grounding devices should be installed by a licensed and qualified electrician. Elevated Work and Weather • Exercise extreme caution when performing elevated work. • Use appropriate equipment and safety practices. • During installation and maintenance, keep tower and tripod sites clear of un-trained or nonessential personnel. Take precautions to prevent elevated tools and objects from dropping. • Do not perform any work in inclement weather, including wind, rain, snow, lightning, etc. Maintenance • Periodically (at least yearly) check for wear and damage, including corrosion, stress cracks, frayed cables, loose cable clamps, cable tightness, etc. and take necessary corrective actions. • Periodically (at least yearly) check electrical ground connections.

24 Vdc Power Supplies 1.

Introduction A Campbell Scientific 24 Vdc power supply kit allows a datalogger and sensors to be powered when AC power is available on-site. AC voltage is routed into the enclosure and through a circuit breaker to the power supply. The power supply sends 24 Vdc to the rest of the system through a charger such as the CH200. It is also possible to use a rechargeable power supply (for example, PS150) if a battery reserve is required in case of AC power failure. Three power supplies are available with different output amperage ratings (FIGURE 1-1). Available ratings include 3.8 Amps (pn 28370), 10 Amps (pn 28371), and 20 Amps (pn 28372). Verify the power supply provides adequate amperage for all system components that will be connected to the power supply.

Installation The power supply kit is mounted on a DIN rail inside a Campbell Scientific enclosure. Each component will snap onto the DIN rail as shown in FIGURE 5-1. NOTE

All wire gauge descriptions in these instructions are for the 3.8 A and 10 A power supply kits. The 20 A power supply kit uses 12 AWG wire for all connections.

FIGURE 5-11. 20 A power supply wiring 11. Have a licensed and qualified electrical contractor complete the AC connections to the outside voltage source. NOTE

6.

The incoming AC voltage wires must be attached to the Ground (G), Neutral (N), and Line (L) terminal blocks. Do not connect the AC directly to the 24 Vdc power supply.

Troubleshooting When troubleshooting the 24 Vdc power supply, begin by checking the ‘DC OK’ LED on the power supply (FIGURE 6-1). This LED remains lit whenever the power supply is receiving AC voltage and has a DC voltage output. If this LED is not lit, verify AC voltage is present from the outside power source. Also check the circuit breaker to ensure it has not been tripped. With the external power off, check the wire connections to ensure each terminal connection is secure.

24 Vdc Power Supplies

FIGURE 6-1. 24 Vdc power supply DC OK LED If the ‘DC OK’ LED is lit, next look at the charging regulator. Campbell Scientific charging regulators include an LED that will light to indicate a valid charge source is found. The switch on the charging regulator must be in the ‘On’ position. Current charging regulator LEDs will flash green to indicate the valid charge source. The PS150/CH150 will flash approximately once per second. The PS200/CH200 will flash approximately every 4 to 5 seconds. If this LED remains off with the switch in the ‘On’ position, the regulator is not receiving voltage from the 24 Vdc power supply. Check the wire connections between the two components. NOTE

The PS100/CH100 has a red LED that lights constantly when a valid charge source is present. Additional troubleshooting is possible by using a digital multimeter. With the power off, use the meter to check continuity of the wires between components. With the power on, check for the appropriate voltage at each connection. Take care to set the meter to the correct voltage type (AC or DC) for each measurement.
